Whitney Personal And Professional Relationship In My Big Fat Fabulous Life
Whitney Way Thore is treading lightly when mixing personal and professional relationships in the upcoming season of My Big Fat Fabulous Life.
In a trending sneak peek of the Season 10 premiere, the 38-year-old contemplates hiring her ex-boyfriend Lennie to help her movie an online fitness video, despite her current long-distance relationship with her French boyfriend, who she says is still going strong after many months together.
If I'm going, to be honest, I have concerns. Lennie is an ex-boyfriend, and she thinks it is really easy to fall back into that dynamic, Thore says in a confessional, noting that she has no one else for the job.
I'm torn because I'm desperate for someone to do this work, and she thinks Lennie could do very well; however, at the same time, he is an ex-boyfriend, and she does not know how wise it is to welcome that into a professional relationship.
Thore Current Relationship
There's current relationship began last year after the couple met through online language tutoring. Her boyfriend, who asked to remain anonymous and hasn't been shown in full on Thore's TLC show or her Instagram, lives in Paris, and she and her friends refer to him as the Frenchman.
In the preview, Lennie questions Thore's relationship condition and admits he thought she was in an open relationship because he's not around.
Open? The only thing open in our relationship is my heart, Thore tells Lennie with a laugh. My mom asked, Whitney, does the Frenchman mind that your ex-boyfriend's always over at your house? And I said no.
Inappropriate Relationship
I want to clear up, though; our relationship is not weird. It's not inappropriate; the reality star adds a confessional with Lennie. Luckily my boyfriend is very not apprehensive and very not worried about you.
There even suggested that she did like the two to meet each other, but Lennie was very unsure about the idea, hinting at possible lingering feelings. She then told Lennie that if they work together, he can't fall in love with her again.
It has been pretty weird rekindling a relationship with Whitney when she has a boyfriend; however, he is not really in the picture, Lennie says in the clip. I've never even seen him, so she kind of just pretends like he doesn't exist.
My Big Fat Fabulous Life premieres on Tuesday, August 9, at 10 pm ET/PT on TLC and will be available on discovery+ the same day.
